tinned and proclaimed to tho woral by 3tr' M'Dutiie, and the Nulliiieis oi South t 'urolitia,! that it is equivalent to forty per cent on some articles, and fifty on others. I hey have said, that the agriculture ot South ( urolina w;.s co- * serted; her commerce stagnant; her b< citess | suspended* and every grade oi mechanism re- ; linquishcd. 1 hat certainty must have I ren a | false representation, lor it was nearly impost- i blc, that she should have been, and isst.il sol wealthy, had the tariti b<« .1 as e.voibitant am; oppressive as it was said to be. I'ite country j had beeu involved in heavy debts after prclinr ted wars—the people of the South were more wealthy than the inimbilauts ot the North; in dustry and domestic mamit.ictures were to be cncmrr.'tjcd, and it was absolutely necessary ;< impose a tariti, an.i perhaps a cent or two m. on the South, who were better able. Il I mis take nut, Mr. Burke, formerly a prominent ! statesman in the British Government, s.-.i.l i..»t ' it was impossible tor die revenue static.tt d to ■ be equivalent in all portions ut the country. — , He said that one portion of counity is goiter-i adv mmo wealthy titan that oi another; that their articles ot' produce are crd aiici d mote in a foreign market, and tii.it as receiving more to: their staple than those whose articles depict i- j ate, or are bought at it tar inferior price, can pay without injury to themselves, a little more , on the articles which they import, in toe levip roetd interchange of commodities. It is a plain 1 and ipto facto case, that a licit person c .ii pay ‘ a hundred cents better than a poor man can pay < ninetv cents, particular ly when the country i etubaiTHsscil. Asa barque in toll sad under a steady breexe or propitious gale, goes along ui umphantly over the rapid suit, tor ns betait.lul ‘ haven of destination; but as soon as the wind are adverse, and the pilot degenerates in tile art of navigating, or by an imprupc r, or too am bitious course of management, she is driven on 1 some rocky coast and there is shipwrecked : shattered by the w inds .aid rocks she is no lon ger able or tit to buoy against the watery ele ment, nor arrive at the port of destination. Tho unskilful and ambitious pilot seeing the scattered fragments ot his fragile barque drilled about by the rapid surf—seeing no prospect oi 1 arriving at that beautiful place, to which he was moving with fond delight—winch country he an ticipated to be blooming, beautiful and verdant: ' immediately seeing no iiojics, he represents the elysian field to be a foul, abominable and dis gusting spot; to be full ot vipers or serpents; to i be like Pandora’s box, pregnant with calamity . Just so with respect to our prominent men in South Carolina. Previous to Mr. Calhoun’s being turned out of oilice, \\ ashington was a ; most beautiful spot, full of splendid mansions; the north-eastern bank of the Potomac, was the . best adapted and most prominent place for our gallant ship, the republic, to exhibit herself. proudly and magnificently to the world. It was the most lit or blessed sanctuary for our consti tution to remain inviolable; but as soon as he ' is divested of his authority ; assoon as his politi- | cal barque, by ambition, corruption and unskilful [ E fllotage, is wrecked on the rough banks of the I ’otomac, (the winds being adverse, and the im pediments 100 great,) immediately he repre sents that beautiful place lo be unworthy of him —to be a most hideous and ugly harbour. He soon represents our gallant ship, the republic, whose flag is unfurled beautifully to the breczo. to be composed of the worst materials ; he rep resents the constitution to be full of corruption; that it should be broken up; that the Potcmai should be the boundary line; and that he shot! d rule as Lord despot over a spotless republic, constructed by himself and his ambitious friends in the south. Fortunately there is a great ma jority who can appreciate the worth of our re public ; tile pure and unadulated principles on .which our constitution was based; the tod,hard ships and sufferings with which it was purchas ed, and the integrity and worth of General Jack son, who presides over her, without a political stain or blemish. Therefore, it has been, and 1 hope ever will be useless tor disappointed of fice seekers, or ambitious and zealous men to lacerate and subvert the country. ■lt is true, 1 believe in Slate Rights, but not in Nullification, on every frivolous occasion. I Every Stale ought to gel her rights, Lut a mi- i nority is absolutely bound to succumb to a ma jority. A minor portion ought to submit to a majority of Congress. The federal powers! might be assimilated to the contrifugal power <»fi the sun accelerating the velocity of the earth on : its approximation to it, and State Rights to the Centripetal power retarding, or counteracting its receding motion ; otherwise, it would hurl us to oblivion. Though every State is entitled to her rights, she should submit as a child to a pan nt, to the laws of the General Govenimt nt, fur iis universal preservation. She should lake shel ter under her wings, which hover and expand over her for her proteclion. The people should nut sutler their minds to be bewildered with the erroneous and exaggerated stat, mentsoi <.r . p poilited office seekers. Ihe celebrated Thom as Jefferson, says, that it the people are too clamorous, quarrelsome and seditious, upon ev ery small innovation ot niino. infraction, no government can last twelve, or even six months; but if tin: government is oppressive—i. it is al despotic or consolidated government, then the people ought to get tiieir grievances rediessed. There was no necessity for .South Carolina to have had recourse to such measuies as would have proved deleterious to herself and our uni ted republic. The General Government was determined to have curtailed that small tariff, when she emerged liom her difficulties and pi - cuniary embarrassmeuts. There is another cause fur which 1 am at tached to tiie ( nion, and opposed to th.' can didate of the South, for the icction of J’re-i- I dent. I remember at the close of ’34, to have ! seen an article iu one of the papers ot 'Geo. gm, which was written by Mr. W fine.—in this arti cle, if 1 mistake nut, lie compared John C. I.alhoun to the conspirator of Rome. \s Ua - aline held out diileieut blandishments to allure; the profligate characters of Rome for its final catastrophe, and the extermination of its quiet inhabitants.— 1 o one, money, as an iie ''Dtive ; to his appetite; (o another, an access to broil.-1 els to gratify his corrupt and criminal desire . Just so with Mr. Calhoun, he oliered .some offi ces in his army; to otheis, oflites in l.is govern ment, which would be established on the (.ins truction oi the inhabitants, and on the pulvt r- ! ized ruins of the old republic of ’/(>. Alas! his doctrine of Nullification, instead of actinv as a centripetal power lo obstruct tiie federal pow ers from transcending the bounds, had, like an eruption or volcano, to have involved the cci;n 4ry in one universal conflagration. W ith r- - 1 pect lo Mr. White, ftotn whom 1 di/rc-.ed in interpolating thi> < jaculation on the doctrine , proclaimed iy Mr. Calhoun, it is notorious to all, that be did not speak a word against tlx- ad ministration of General Jackson, until the lime .of the removal of the depot's—the period whit h j was approximating to the lime of the election for the Presidential chair. As soon as Mr. W'liite ascertains that the people of the South were opposed to the re jnoval of tho deposits, knowing that. \ an Buri n was the undivided frit nd of General J icksoi:, £*id seeing no chance of I ' u; ;> >ri, he chatru • political course—he ■ c. the administra tion and depir ts the removal ol 1 !.<• di p . i; ; a . being pregnant with unnumbered woe ami d'. c ful calamities to the country. He said, if 1 r'i mprnber well, iu hi, sarcastic elo''piem«', that hundreds wore made bankrupts; t: : th-m .n .of mechanic, were buried out of i.mpl.iymi lit ; that many were httrle l from the bo om oi al fl ' ami ll.e l. : of j .a. ; ' dsttress; and that, like < ; .ar of old, Im <ro - >cd the rubicon on the Delaware, ami rml < I z.led the public monies, lie well knew tint ; iiiis satirical display of eloquence would go i own sweet —would be congenial to the South. | an.l v. onl I1 e good policy lot liis election. Soon la ;<■;•, we arc informed that Mr. W hite is a can l di.late for the Presidency. We need have no hesitation in thinking that I tics w as a false and exaggerated statement, and ! that he must, without doubt, be ncltiatcd by no 1 other motive than ambition: otherwise, a man nl bi.i inform ;t:on, his eloquence, his historical, i p.uilical and law know led e would not change o> eon. .■ -o suddenly. Such a political tians , i:on mast be attribmed to nothin" else than the 1 1 . h othee Oi President, t cannot see, nccor d.: •; to my bumble jiulcmeiit, lev., or in what i manner, thousands wen' hurled liom affluence to pover y a, d distress; or how like Casar,he ' ros.-ed the Rubicon and einlu".,zled the public ; monies. T.a-money did not depreciate; it was -ioiie as previously ; and will be, j ! ■' I tin of ’;( . It i plain, and vva 11 : mown, ti nt th. President did not appropriate 1 <’■ nt oi it to his own use. The first good re si.liii'/. is, it divests foreigners from any power .n that Bank, and it impedes, or checks a partv that was inti rested in it from political, party, I or electioneering purposes. Xullifiers of the South! banish your destruc i five doctrines of Nullification, on every f’rivo ! lolls occasion. Leaders of the South, banish I I from vour hearts, corrupt ambition; concen i tr ite vutirsi Ives with tin l I nion party, into one 1 I general focus for the preservation of your coun try : encircle around your immortal Jackson, an I hail him w ith h -.'mias as the hero of Or is: > and ti t' vanquisher of the Indians, it is Ims your Government will belike a refulgent | himinary, encircled by her inferior orbits, dis- j 'fusing healili and splendor to all around., Greece, bvher battles elevated herself to pomp, ' b ndar and magnifi' once; but soon after, en tv atefl bv too much luxury and contentions a her prominent men, she plunged herself j into insignificancy. Alter the lapse ot some j veins, she retrieved her lost splendor and mag ■liiicence under Alexander, after having gained I manv bailies over the Persians, and having ex tendi d his conqttesi 'marly to the extremity of the Eastern Comment, lie imprudently indul o-ed in rictiiK, and fell a victim to his dissipa- ’ lion in an earlv’ stage ot life. Immediately at- ; ter, his country tell into the hands of four of his j subordinate generals, who, shortly, by their contentions and jealousies embroiled the coun try in civil wars. Alas! she has finally tallim into lne hand.- of the barbarous lurks. Indie: same manner Rome elevated herself to splendor ! by her punic wars with the Carthagenians. i But soon alter, by her civil wars under the tri uinvirsbip, she too, plunged herself in ruin and . distress. Nullifiers of the South, look on the destiny of other nations that once bid ns fair for permit- 1 nency as yours does, and pause before you fur- ; ther go. Before I conclude, 1 will add a few more re marks on the integrity of the union. With re gard to tiie keeping the deposits in one general fund, it seems to me, according to my humble judgment, to be one great chain to the federal compact. If these funds were distributed to the I dhfereut states. In what manner, 1 w ill, ask the | Hulliliers, m c tse of an emergency or internal war i with a ) articular state, can she defend herself, j By mean- of her heavy expenses, she is soon ex-' hausted, she becomes imbecile, feeble and soon would fall to the enemy, if not assisted in soldiers and men by the general government. For instance, with respect to the late Indian hostilities. Flori da or Alabama could nut maintain her expenses, it is then quite plain that it is better to leavo it in one general fund and apply it where it is necessa- ! ry. Their is one great trait prominent in our gov-1 ernment that is neutrality with all beligerent pow- I ers. If our government had been corrupt, it would have involved the country in massacre, car nage and blood by too much ambition or by en - ! dcavoring to extern! -our territory too far. It would - be like the dog on the waters edge, in the possess ion of the hide, and seeing its leflcction iu the water, letliug go his hide jumped in at the shad- ) ow, ami immediately lost both, the shadow and j -übstance. by means of another animal coining < up atthc time and taking it. Our wise and prom- I I ineiit statesman know, that by ambition, Greece 1 and Rome formerly the most conspicuous nations ! in E.o ope had fallen, 't hey know that the modern, j but la e Napoleon Bonaparte lost •'is trophies, his I laurels and his victories at the battle of Waterloo, : from where ho was burled as a solitary exile to ’ that memorable Island, St. Helena : that c.onspic ■im .- barren rock in the Atlanti.

JAMES .H SHAHAN,. October 11. 59—ts. PRESEM MEN, S? FAYETTE, Superior Court, > September Term. 1836. | T- me Grano inquest caosu'ii, select,.,, V y an I sworn ioi the Comity ot Fayette, make ti e iollow uig presentments, and recom datious, ,'iz: W e miv c examined into tiie situation of the Poor School Fund, and find that it has been expended upon the indigent children of the county, in co •iforniity with the law upon that subject, and that the disbursing officer lias kept his accounts to the entire satisfaction of this Grand Jury ; although we cannot say that the present system of educatbw poor children is without its good Jesuits, yet we believe that could public spirit be aroused upon the subject, a more beneficial one might be sought and adopted. Therefore, for the purpose of elici ting an inquiry upon the subject, we recom mend the next Lt gislature to authorize the Governor to offer .a premium of a sufficient amount, to call lortii the best talents of the country, for the most approved system of Free Schools adopted to the situation and population of Georgia, and when adopted, to set apart a sufficient fund to carry it into operation. Although we cannot r cogn ze the right, to the extent that some Grand Juries iu this State have exercised, with regard to political matters : yet it may not be thought improper for us mildly, and with due deference to the opinion of others, to make such suggestions and lecommondations in the policy of the State, as seems to us of vast importance to the welfare of its citizens. We hailed as a new era in the jurisprudence of the State, and one which would result in in indalculablc benefit to the citizens thereof, the alteration of a part of the constitution, consum mated at the last session of the Legislature, au thorizing the establishment of a Court for the correction oi Errors. No person who is ac quainted with the present organization of the Courts of the State, and the administration ol the laws by them, will deny the fact, that it is next to au impossibility, lor the discussion oi the judges in the different judiciaflcircuits to be uniform, each judge having it in his power to be a little monarch in his circuit, and his deci sions during his continuance in office may be immutable law, there being no tribunal by which his Errors, (if any committed) may be corrected, whether they arise from au imper fect knovvledgeot the law, or from political, per sonal, or avaricious bias. By his successors those decissions may, and very often are rever sed ; therefore what is law this year in one cir- ( cuit, may not be. law the next, and what is law in one circuit may not, yeu, never lias been in all the circuits at the same time. Not so when the Court for the Correction of Errors becomes organized. Those Judges will have more time to investigate and mature their judgment jpon the law. They will know that their decisions wiii be published to the world, in Books of Re ports, as the Laws ot Georgia, hence as well for their own dignity and honor, as supreme judges ol the State, as for the dignify and hon or of the State itself, they will be careful to in vestigate and examine the law well before they send it forth as law. In a few years, the most of the legal and litigate points which have dis tracted our best jurists, will be solemnly adju dicated and settled, and the Bookss of Reports, dissimulated among our citizens, that tho titles of our property, and the rights, lives mid liber ties of our people will be almost universally known, so that when we may acquire property, by inheritance, will, purchase, or otherwise, by comparing our title with those Books of Re ports, we can pass upon the legality of the imne ourselves. The parties litigant will have the advaniagos arising fioin (he establishment of mis '..''nrt without the iutcivention of a jurv, : itlmut very t ,• )na ] *1 e tiie;<.fore, wuliout stuppinii to enquire what was the iinw" rrantal.'le cause which prevented the last Leri.'autre from organizing this Court, a nestly ' cormm nd our .Senator, and I' pre sentritivcs to n-<- their < xertioiH to c irrv into fii’cct at the next session of die Legislature, Vv'c request such of our presentments as are of a public, nature to be printed io the Soutl e. n Recorder, and Standard of Unicn. 1 Thomas C.
